Hello givré,
I've read so many success stories in this thread, so I wanted to install NTFS read/write today. I have the "Ubuntu Dapper 6.06 64 bit system".
I added to the sources.list:
Code:
#######################
###Givre's repository (ntfs-3g)###
#######################
deb http://givre.cabspace.com/ubuntu// dapper main
deb-src http://givre.cabspace.com/ubuntu// dapper main
and I started the installation:
Code:
owner@Owner-Desktop:~$ sudo aptitude update
-----
owner@Owner-Desktop:~$ sudo aptitude upgrade
-----
owner@Owner-Desktop:~$ sudo aptitude install ntfs-3g
after that I got the message:
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
Reading extended state information
Initializing package states... Done
Building tag database... Done
Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "ntfs-3g"
The following packages have been kept back:
k3b
0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 1 not upgraded.
Need to get 0B of archives. After unpacking 0B will be used.
owner@Owner-Desktop:~$
Does
Couldn't find any package whose name or description matched "ntfs-3g"
mean
a) that I can't use the command "aptitude" or
b) that NTFS read/write is not available yet for the 64 bit version of Ubuntu Dapper?
PS.: more detailed info for 'update, upgrade, install' and the sources.list I could post if necessary.
